Well, of course not. No one spent millions on ads for your clones.

    Actually, they did. The clones were all written for cable companies and ISPs and offered to their customers as a free perk. These companies promoted the shit out of them and still nobody ever used them.

    I even "starred" in one of these ads. I had the amusing role of being amazed that I could make a phone call with the app ... when the app was running on a fucking iPhone.
